## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ As effective as the brand name product at a fraction of the price
*by  on Reviewed in the United States August 5, 2026*

This works better at providing all-night cough suppression than other such medicines. Perhaps it's because the active ingredient is different, as noted on the label. It appears to be the same as Delsym, but costs far less. I'll keep buying it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good
*by  on Reviewed in the United States July 18, 2026*

Works just as well as Delsym.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Get the Grape!
*by  on Reviewed in the United States February 5, 2026*

Tastes like melted grape tootsie pops and really does lessen a dry, irritating cough.
